How do I renew items?

There are three ways you can renew items checked out to your account.

  • You can call the library (during regular library hours) at 781-545-8727 and ask to renew items. Please have the library card the items are checked out to available. You will be told whether the renewal was successful or not.
  • You can renew online. Click on My Account . Enter your library card number (all 14 numbers, no spaces) and PIN (which is ocln, unless you have changed it). Click in the checkbox next to each title that you want to renew and then click Renew Selected Items.
  • You can renew items when you come in the library. You do not need to have the item(s) with you. You do need to have your library card with you. At the Service Desk, request that items on your account be renewed.

Most Scituate items are renewable. Most items have a maximum of 2 renewals allowed.

Other OCLN libraries may have fines and borrowing periods that differ from those of Scituate Town Library. Materials borrowed from other OCLN libraries are subject to the owning libraries’ policies concerning renewals. Click for more
